Read the excerpt from Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass.
What effect does Douglass's use of the words
"welcome." "privilege." and "perfect" have in this
paragraph?
And, to cap the climax of their base ingratitude and
fiendish barbarity, my grandmother, who was now very
old, having outlived my old master and all his children,
having seen the beginning and end of all of them, and
her present owners finding she was of but little value,
her frame already racked with the pains of old age, and
complete helplessness fast stealing over her once
active limbs, they took her to the woods, built her a little
hut, put up a little mud-chimney, and then made her
welcome to the privilege of supporting herself there in
perfect loneliness, thus virtually turning her out to die!
O They are used sarcastically to emphasize the cruel
treatment of his grandmother.
O They provide a contrast between the wealthy,
powerful master and the enslaved person.
O They demonstrate the kind treatment Douglass's
grandmother received from her master.
O They are used to describe Douglass's
grandmother's dreams of one day being set free.

Will anyone be able to check for grammatical errors and give an opinion on the essay itself? write about the following topic: some people believe that allowing children to make their own cholces on everyday matters (such as food, clothes and entertainment) is likely to result in a society of individuals who only think about their own wishes. other people believe that it is important for children to make decisions about matters that affect them. discuss both these views and give your own opinion. —— nowadays, in this busy and fast developing world teaching children from an early age to cope with their own decisions (such as food, clothes etc.) and then take the coincidences after that is something that a lot of people believe that it is important for them. on the other hand other people think that it might end up in a society of humans who put their wishes before anyone else's. but which one of these views will predominate? firstly, the people who allow their children to make their own decisions are the people who everyone should look up to. it is important to let your children learn from the mistakes their make. the parents can not be with them all the time every day and for that reason, teaching them to deal with their decisons or even problems will them in the future. of course, there are always disadvantages such as some people may really forget about that their children will need them at a certain point in life and may loose connection whit them. but that is why it should have that moderately path, where kids will make their own decisions but will feel comfortable to always ask for a advice tueur parents. on the other hand, there are and the second type of parents which think that too much individualism is not good. it really depends on the parents how they will teach their children to carry on with the independence they have. a lot of them might forget that they are still kids and will need and advices from time to time and because of that the parents turn their kids in individuals who only think about their own wishes due to the fact that they are let on their own and have to cope with everyone and everything by themselves. in conclusion, i think that the best decision someone can make is to look up to the first type of parents. that way they will be able to train their children to become independent people who will respect the wishes of others and they will be able to cope with their decisions in the future when they need it.
